We've had a lot of fun with this the last two years and I welcome all returning and new participants this year. The Annual UD Forum Awards are a chance for all the posters here to recognize each other's contributions to the always-fun, always-informative community that is the Ultimate Disney Forum.
The rules are simple and are the same as last year's. You may nominate up to FIVE people in each of the categories that appear below. Nominations must be emailed to awallaceunc@gmail.com to be valid - no PMs accepted. Please make "3rd Annual UD Forum Nominations" your subject line. You may not nominate yourself for anything, nor you can nominate a thread/review/idea that you authored. Of course, the same person/people/thing that won in last years can be nominated and win again. For those of you concerned, I won't be scrutinizing your nominations and your submissions will be kept completely secret.
Remember, the intention here is not to pit anyone against anyone else or hurt anyone's feelings. There are a LOT of people participating and only a few can be nominated and even fewer can win. You never know how many votes may have come in for you! Play nice and remember that it's all in good fun. So please, no hurt feelings.
Important: "Of The Year" is defined as 3/13/05 - 5/19/06. Only reviews/threads/topics/etc. posted in that time frame are eligible.
Everyone is encouraged to put a lot of thought into this and consider more than just the last month or two.
Please do not post anything about who/what you are nominating in this thread. We want to keep things mysterious.
After they have been sent and tabulated, the official nominations will be posted in Off-Topic for you to vote on. The number of final nominees selected for each category will vary, depending on the numbers received, though the goal is always 3-5 for each (not always possible).
And now with all that out of the way, let's get started...

Yeah- I lost it when I heard that. I paused the DVR and immediately made it my signature line.
